[ashyx]

Here ya go

Hey can you throw me a odin flashable stock recovery so I don't have to completely reflash stock again? I've done it so many times now LMAO

No need, just install Flashfire then open the stock firmware with FLASHFIRE and select to just install the recovery.

I'll take a look at these when I can. Can't do it tonight.

Oh yea true, didnt think of that! Thanks!

I appreciate the work you're doing on this phone so much! Once I can get twrp running I plan on making a deodexed and debloated rom, an maybe try porting lineage, but my skills aren't there yet lol

I been doing a lot of reading.......
Is there a way to root on the QF5?
I got all the files and extracted all the needed files from the .tar...... Anyone have a rooted QF5 stock rom yet????? I been trying to root the build but its out of my realm. I got superR kitchen and everything but can get it to work right. I don't know what to do. I can't pull the /system with root so I need the system folder n all it's contents......
How can I root this device am j727p perx on this QF5 build? Anyone have luck yet. We do need help getting a stock rooted rom with the QF5 build.

Yes this is work for all J727P phones the root program works but still no working twrp recovery ! If you haven't found the rooting program yet it's in the Rom kernel recovery part of the forum !

 

[jaydriod26]

Why not try installing cwm on j727p did u try that yet so i can install roms

 

[TeknoGodz]

Why not try installing cwm on j727p did u try that yet so i can install roms

because no one has successfully gotten this phone to boot either CWM or TWRP.

EDIT: Now they have!! Minz has started a new thread with his TWRP working on our phone for the first time ever!!!

Anyone know how to get the hotspot working on the J727P... I'm on the ARA1 build, rooted with TWRP... Just cant seem to find anything on getting the native hotspot to work... Any guidance in the right direction would be greatly appreciated... Thank you for your time and consideration....

I've actually tried quite a few things and nothing worked... I got the hotspot to come on. But dns server not working. I did tether provision build prop edit and adb the global tether dun setting. So yeah doesn't shut off saying I don't have it. But it's not working once connected. No internet connection.

What's wierd is I got this phone because I can root it but no tethering so far. My Stylo 3 I couldn't root but at least I could tether. I hope someone figures this out because I'm stumped.

The apn type and adding dun use to work.... I made a thread on it. I'm still able to get my msl code but all the apns are greyed out and you can't edit any of them now.
With that said.........
So far I have found out the apn-conf.xml in /system folder. I can edit and save with no problem...... now in that file at the top it say it must match the res/common/xml/apn.xml or something very similar to that. It took my awhile to find this file but I have FOUND IT!!! (If you use apk editor and select the menu button to view system files/apks). Look for servicemode.apk and browse that .apk, in the /res/xml folder you will find the apns.xml file!!! I found apn-editor.xml and apn-settings.xml in the settings all also

I downloaded APKS Editor in the play store and started poking around. The file is a system all called servicemode.apk, if you decompile the file and check the res folder and look in the xml folder TADA, YOU WILL FIND THE APNS.XML file....... so that's as far as I have got. When viewing this APN.XML file I can't figure out how to edit it to match the system/apns-conf.xml file.
Now in the apk editor you can view the strings or files..... I used the file option and looked at all the strings..... they can be edited.
ANY HELP IS GREATLY APPRECIATED! I looked thru the settings and service mode til all also so I'm getting confused and maybe a fresh pair of eyes and a clear mind can help figure this out. I been trying along time now!

So I brought back my J3 and bought this: SM-J727P Galaxy J7 Perx TD-LTE / Galaxy J7 2017
Is there any way to root this yet? I couldn't find anything.
I'd love a DE-bloated ROM too but I know it doesn't exist yet.
thanks for any help.

To root the J7 Perx, I did this: (remove the spaces in the links because it won't let me post a link)
1. On your phone, download the magisk zip file: htt ps://github.c om/topjoh nwu/Magisk/releases/download/v16.0/Magisk-v16.0.zip
2. Power off
On your computer:
1. Download an application called odin: htt ps://odindownload.c om/download/Odin3_v3.12.3.zip
2. Download TWRP for the J7 Perx: htt ps://dl.twrp.m e/j7popltespr/twrp-3.2.1-1-j7popltespr.img.tar
3. Install odin
4. Boot the phone into download mode (Power + Vol down + home) then press volume up
5. Open odin and plug your phone in, making sure OEM is unlocked and USB debugging is enabled on your phone (both found in developer options)
6. Click AP, then find your .img.tar file you downloaded in step 2
7. Click start
8. When the setup is complete, your phone's screen will go black and it will vibrate. As soon as it vibrates, unplug the phone and take the battery out IMMEDIATELY. This prevents your phone from reverting back to its stock custom recovery. If you don't, you will have to restart the process.
9. Pop the battery back in to your phone, then hold Power + Vol up + home. you should see "recovery booting... set warranty bit:recovery"
10. Teamwin will load
11. Continue through setup then click Install, then go to sdcard>download or wherever you downloaded the magisk zip file
12. It will install magisk
13. reboot>system and you should be good to go
NOTE: *This can damage your device. If you mess up, I am not responsible*
PS. if you get caught in a bootloop like i did, reinstall magisk or just install the stock rom

3.12 should be fine.
There something odd going on with the kernel source.
I'm not sure why the kernel refuses to boot at the moment, it maybe be related to AVB. I'll have to look into that.

However its logs I need and for that root is required.
I should be able to get SuperSU to install using the twrp version in post #7, but I need you to confirm that you can mount system in TWRP?

Does anyone think wether or not the system could be booted through a configured IP networked carrier? Because when I try to run adb shell [enter] then kill Unix 3 it tells me permission denied. Just curious
